Fancy Cancel: Faison’s Depot (NC) Double Circle of Wedges -- CSA #11 (AD) (4-Margin) affixed on the reverse to seal the backflap and tied by the the Faison’s Depot NC Double Circle of Wedges (AC-05) Fancy Cancel. No postmark on the cover, but the town of origin was identified some years ago by Bill Bogg from an enclosed letter which is no longer with the cover. Addressed on the face of the cover to Miss Nancy F. Holley, Jerusalem PO, Davis County, N. Carolina. The stamp and fancy cancel were not damaged in opening the envelope, but the backflap has been cut so that the stamp and cancel can be folded out for exhibit purposes. The stamp with the cancel was cropped from this cover and used as the listing illustration (AC-05) on Page 375 of the new CSA Catalog. The cropped stamp is also illustrated on Page 352 of the Collector's Guide to Confederate Philately Second Edition. Cover shows a little edge wear but is very clean.
